This isn't the "right" way to do it, and you may have performance issues
depending on the size of the file, but you can always combine grep with unless.
If you want to re-extract the file if the file doesn't contain "testString"
this should work.
exec { "tar xf /my/tar/file.tar":
cwd => "/var/tmp",
creates => "/var/tmp/myfile",
path => ["/usr/bin", "/usr/sbin"],
unless => "grep testString myfile",
}
